FinlandFinland really feels as if on the outskirts of the continent. Honest people. The country is regulated very much by the extreme variations in daylight between winter and summer. Stories and picturesBasic information
Capital: Helsinki Population: 5.5 mln Religions: Predominantly Lutheran National Church Languages: Finnish (official), Swedish (official) Climate: Temperate climate, but with considerable temperature variations (see below). Summer is warm with relatively mild weather in spring and autumn. Winter, which lasts from November to mid-March, is very cold. In the north (see the chart for Sodankyla), the snow cover lasts from mid-October until mid-May, but, in the brief Arctic summer, there may be up to 16 hours of sunshine a day. Rainfall is distributed throughout the year with snow in winter, but the low humidity often has the effect of making it seem warmer than the temperature would indicate (even in Lapland, the temperature can rise to over 30°C). During warm weather, gnats and mosquitos can be a hazard, particularly in the north of the country. Bring a good supply of insect repellant. The Twilight season lasts for two months in the north during winter.
